Dipping a fastfire protector

[Uvagobbler]

I have a ff iii and a 336 mount. I purchased the protector with the picatenny mount. I removed the picatenny base. Has anyone had the protector or 336 dipped? I was wondering if it caused any mounting issues or problems. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks. Mike

Nope!  This is just the protector but I imagine you will have no problem.  The finish is very thin and should have a clear coat protectant that is also very thin.  You will be fine.

If you ever decide to, you can also have the rain guard dipped as well. Lostncamo did my dip job in New MOBU. If you want to get the protector dipped, I would suggest using them as well, if you want it done in Mossy Oak.

Chatterbox---is that what your cover Is called.  I searched online for that and had no luck.  Sweet camo job btw!

I dipped mine myself.  Worked and installed fine.

I appreciate all the suggestions and answers. I'm new to the ff and want to do things right. My 20 ga. 11-87 is in MO break-up and I want to have it dipped to match. My ff iii came with the rain guard. Can't wait to have the gun set up and and try some fed heavyweight 7's with my new Sumtoy.
    Thanks, Mike.

Mine was dipped by Color and Camo.

Thanks!
I believe it is just called a rain guard, and it comes with the FFIII's. Not sure you can buy one direct from Burris or not.

Ok.  Thanks.   I have a 2.  That's why I never seen one.

I feel better about the dipping of the protector. I received longer screws and star washers with the protector. Should they be long enough with the protector? Is there a torque value also? Sorry for all the questions, this is my first time with the fastfire. Any info or tips would be appreciated.
